!Go Chicken Go! New KC North Location!

In a move that has foodies across Kansas City clucking with excitement, cult favorite restaurant Go Chicken Go has announced that it will be opening a new 6th location in the Northland, next to the new Whataburger off Barry Rd and I-169 with a tentative opening planned for in January 2024. There are also plans for a location at Vivion Rd and North Oak Trafficway.

Hayes Hamburgers: A Slice of Nostalgia Struggling to Stay Open

Kansas City, MO — For nearly 70 years, Hayes Hamburgers at Antioch and Vivion Rd has been a blast of Kansas City past, serving up crisp burgers and nostalgia in equal measure, right down to it's refusal to get with the times and accept Plastic, operating as a cash-only business. Opened in 1955, this classic diner was once a beacon for late-night cravings, its neon sign glowing 24/7 over bustling counters and sizzling grills. But the era of round-the-clock service is now a fond memory, as the beloved eatery struggles to stay afloat amidst staffing shortages and an uncertain future. Like many small businesses, Hayes was hit hard by the pandemic. Once renowned for its reliability, the diner’s hours have become erratic. With only three employees on staff, day shifts are a scramble, and the once-vital overnight hours have been abandoned altogether. Despite this it is still a bargain, their sliders are only $2.10. Regulars are often greeted by locked doors and handwri...

Man Attempts Suicide on I-35 and Brighton Overpass

In a gripping display of heroism and compassion, Ms. Lakatos and two of her brave companions successfully averted a tragedy on the evening of May 15, 2023. Positioned atop the daunting I-35 overpass on N. Brighton, they prevented a young man from taking a leap into the abyss. While their selfless act shone brightly amidst the darkness, it was disheartening to witness the apathy of numerous onlookers who, instead of extending a helping hand, chose to document the harrowing episode on their smartphones. Holly Pyke who was driving by describes the scene. "We passed right before the cops got there. There were 4 cars stopped in the middle of the road and were looking down at a couple of people sitting in the ditch on 35 below the bridge. Not sure what was happening though." The scene unfolded with Ms. Lakatos and her other friend Ms. Lee valiantly grappling to keep the troubled young man from breaking free of their grasp and pursuing his ill-fated course. As they strug...

Gladstone’s New Pedestrian Bridge Connecting NE 68th Street

Only half a bridge For decades, anyone driving through northeast Gladstone has noticed the odd break in NE 68th Street — the stretch that dead-ends at Mill Creek on the east side of MO Highway 1, near the Hy-Vee and Walmart. It’s one of those little local quirks: the street exists on both sides of the creek, but it’s never been connected. Drivers heading east or west have long had to detour down to 64th or up to 72nd Street just to cross. Well, after all these years, Gladstone is finally building a bridge there. Unfortunately, it’s not the kind that helps traffic flow — it’s a walking bridge. Yes, instead of completing the street grid and easing congestion on surrounding routes, the city decided to pour money into a pedestrian bridge that few people were asking for. The new span, nearly finished, will connect two quiet dead-end stretches of 68th Street with a sidewalk over Mill Creek. The goal, according to officials, is to “enhance pedestrian connectivity” and “promote alternative ...
